No idea on the fans, but I bought some of those strip lights from China.
They're awesome, and you can get a range of colours.
I rigged them up with alligator clips or cigar lighters, and have used them camping and under the house, for about a year.
I'll do a tutorial if I get time....
I got wire and connectors from Jaycar, put them in some bailey channel from Bunnings, attached magnets on the back of that.
That way I can use them on the outside of the car, hang em off tarp poles or anywhere.
I can't ever see myself using gas lights and manderls again.
